no one-- no one disputes that president obama inherited a difficult situation, and in his first two years, with his party in complete control of washington, he passed nearly every item on his agenda, but that didn't make things better. in fact, we find ourselves in a nation facing debts, doubts, and despair. this is the worst economic recovery in 70 years. unemployment has been above 8% for more than three years. the longest run since the great depression. families are hurting. we have the largest deficits and the biggest federal government since world war ii. nearly one out of six americans are in poverty, the worst rate in a generation. mommoms and dads are strugglingo make ends meet. household incomes have dropped more than $4,000 over the past four years.
